300.0. "Mo Foster" by MARVIN::MACHIN () Fri Dec 16 1988 15:02

    Heard a tune by Mo Foster on the radio the other night,
    "Jaco", I think.
    
    Anyone know the album? -- couldn't find it in Reading.
    
    Richard.

T.R	Title	User	Personal Name	Date	Lines
300.1	A heart of glass	PEKING::TRAFFIC		`Tue Feb 21 1995 16:19`	2
	Not much success with this one then.
300.2		MOVIES::VERBIST	Free the Files 11 ! �	`Tue Feb 21 1995 16:44`	8
	Bloody hell, I know (of) Mo Foster - could have helped the bloke. I've even got a couple albums. Guy p.s. this was the man behind "The Popadom Song" in the "cringeworthy records" note or whatever it's called.
300.3		CHEFS::GEORGEM	The west is the best	`Tue Feb 21 1995 16:49`	2
	What was the name of the drummer (?) in the Velvet Underground? Wasn't her name Mo?
300.4		MOVIES::VERBIST	Free the Files 11 ! �	`Tue Feb 21 1995 16:53`	9
	Have absolutely no idea about the Velvet Underpants. Mo Foster is a bassist, does mostly session work (Jeff Beck, Phil Collins, Gary Moore are a few names that come to mind). He also writes his own tunes that these days would probably fall into the "ambient" bracket, can't think of any other word to describe them (other than "boring") - he should stick to session work. /g
300.5		CHEFS::GEORGEM	The west is the best	`Tue Feb 21 1995 16:55`	2
	Well, you seem to have answered this chap's query perfectly well, even though it took 7 years!
300.6		COSME3::HEDLEYC	Lager Lout	`Tue Feb 21 1995 16:59`	4
	Didn't the Velvet Underpants record some really crap songs for an EP with the Macc Lads a few years ago? And isn't Tucker someone from Grange Hill? Chris.
300.7	Ooops, wrong conference?	ARRODS::WHITEHEADJ	Shades of Scarlett	`Tue Feb 21 1995 17:22`	2
	Tucker in Grange Hill was played by Todd Carty who now plays Mark Fowler in Eastenders.
300.8		FORTY2::ASH	Mail Interchange Group, Reading	`Thu Feb 23 1995 12:46`	9
